I want to get some other colors to breed with my blacks. I can't wait for a genetics guru to come and teach us.

I have black Rosecombs. I started out with a trio from Lonnie McAfee. I think they are so cool! I'd post pics but the hens are in breeding condition and the cock has dropped his tail. I assure you, a Rosecomb is not a Rosecomb without that tail! So I'm favoriting this thread so I can come back and share when they are picture ready.

With black, you can use blue, splash and mottled and build from there.

Who has the best blue and splash around. Also are mottled popular or am I going to have to pay an arm and a leg to get one.

What a beautiful pair! They are so elegant!

Rosecombs are referred to as The Little Aristocrats of the poultry world. Here's a link to the Rosecomb Bantam Association's website:

BTW you could try breeding a BB Red to a Black to produce some Brown Reds.
